Now, I am no fan of Funny People but I also hate to see any coffeeshop go away, and apparently this one has.

might give the place a try now. a real irony seeing as I'd never think of setting foot in the place while it was still a coffee shop with that ridiculous 2g min buy rule they had there. a more relaxed place to enjoy a smoke and a cold or hot beverage while the world hurries by that tiny little road might be just the ticket. a bit of a snack as well? even better. best of all would be 7am opening for smoker friendly brekkie till 3am close, a quick slush out/clean and off they go again. :mrgreen:

You know there may be a silver lining to these cs closures with more smoker friendly bar/food places popping up where the cs used to be. a perfect example would be hgf which if turned into a smoker firendly snack/bar would be an ideal place to smoke up a Utopia buy when the shops 2 good tables are taken. best of both worlds, good weed and good trip report after my next visit will/may follow.....
eventually :lol:
How much did you produce?

In the interest of accuracy, I double checked the the new sign and the place appears to be billed as "Funny People Drink and Eat" and "Smokers Friendly", when I walked by I could see people sitting inside and rolling up joints so it appears to be doing a fair business.
